Life Lines

His was one of my must-read columns in the Sunday Times, never mind it was a fornightly column. I also come across his articles/columns now and then in other magazines. Most of them are on relationships which form the tapestry of life. I enjoy the depth that he gives on the topic, and he presents his take and insights in a layman, pragmatic manner. Anthony Yeo is also a much sought-after speaker for talks and workshops.

This was one of his Sunday Times articles, published some time around January this year. I found myself nodding in agreement to his take on what marriage is, and what it is not.

On 19 April, I was a little saddened to read it was to be Anthony's last article for the column, an enlightening piece on the importance of prioritising and ensuring there is non-work time for rest, recreation, relationship and reflection so as to nurture the soul.

And yesterday, I was saddened to read from Straits Times that Anthony has been diagnosed with lymphoma. I certainly hope the best for him and his family during this time.
